Victory! CA assisted suicide bill is dead

UPDATE:

In a huge victory for pro-life advocates in California, SB 128, the physician-assisted suicide bill that was passed by the state Senate has died because Democrats had trouble finding enough votes in a state Assembly committee to move the bill ahead. SB 128 is reportedly off the table for the rest of the year! (Source)

SB 128, California’s physician-assisted suicide bill, SB 128, is up for a hearing today, July 7.

According to liberal Los Angeles Times columnist George Skelton, there are 6 Democrats on the California Assembly Health Committee who don’t like SB 128. Call them now, and tell them to vote “NO” on SB 128:

Lorena Gonzalez of San Diego: (916) 319-2080

Jimmy Gomezof downtown Los Angeles: (916) 319-2051

Roger Hernándezof West Covina: (916) 319-2048

Freddie Rodriguez of Pomona/Chino: (916) 319-2052

Miguel Santiago of downtown Los Angeles: (916) 319-2053

Sebastian Ridley-Thomas of Culver City: (916) 319-2054

Also call these 2 Republicans from San Diego County on the committee:

Brian Maienschein (916) 319-2077

Rocky Chávez (916) 319-2076

Do the math: If all 6 Republicans on the 19-member committee vote no, and at least 4 Democrats vote no or abstain, SB 128 will fail to achieve a majority vote and will instead be defeated, preventing California from becoming the Suicide State.

TAKE IMMEDIATE ACTION. Call these assemblymembers right now and say, “Oppose SB 128. Please vote no!”

Refer them to The Netherlands and Belgium, where physician-assisted suicide is resulting in doctors killing people who are not terminally-ill, including the elderly, the young, the mentally ill, and babies. See:

I called each one; the only Assemblyperson I couldn’t reach was Sebastian Ridley-Thomas. I also shared this on my Facebook page. We can’t allow our government to intervene on this. Our lives, for better or worse, are inalienable. Not even WE can give them away.

we have Brown in the Federal court right now. He allows his ‘agents’ (the police/sheriff) to go around murdering people and I am not surprised he signed this Bill. It’s all about POPULATION CONTROL! you may view the federal case on http://www.belyew.wordpress.com
